International Tournament Tip of the Day – Tip 16

Any manager or coach listed on the Eligibility Affidavit who is
unable to participate because of injury, illness, vacation or other
justifiable reason may be replaced by another eligible person.

If a manager or coach is replaced, that person may NOT be returned
to the Tournament Affidavit.

Permanent replacements must be from the league’s regular season
teams and shall be recorded and approved by the District
Administrator or Tournament Director in the space provided on the
Eligibility Affidavit.

The exception is in the case of a manager or coach who is unable to
attend a game for a “justifiable reason.” In that situation, the
Tournament Director could approve a temporary replacement. A
temporary replacement of a manager or coach need not be entered on
the Eligibility Affidavit. A justifiable reason is solely the
judgment of the Tournament Director.

A manager or coach who is ejected from a game may not be replaced
for the team’s next physically played game (See Rule 4.07).
